Head lice are, tiny six-legged, blood-sucking parasites. Each leg is equipped with a claw enabling the louse to grasp onto the shaft of the hair. They range in size from 2mm to 4mm, approximately the size of a sesame seed. They can vary in color from grayish white to reddish brown. Head lice, like chameleons, have the ability to adapt to their environment.

Customer Review:

Fantastic. Martina knows here stuff. Much more professional than the others. She comes to your house and is very reasonable in price. Had a quote from Hairfairies that was three times what it was with Martina. We are lice free now. Took the stress out of the situation.
